Note: This story contains spoilers from "Andor" Season 2, Episode 12. Everyone knew "Rogue One" was the finish line for Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) in "Andor," but the question was how close Season 2 of the Disney+ show would put him to the beginning of his end.

In the final three episodes of 'Andor,' Kleya and Partagaz face unthinkable choices and Cassian gets in position for 'Rogue One.'

Episode 10 also starts the real endgame, as Luthen is able to finally piece together the Empire's seemingly disparate activities — strip-mining Ghorman and Kyber crystals from Jedha — and unmasking the "energy independence" plan as the cover story for the Death Star.
